About Blue Magic
Artist Biography
Along with the Stylistics and the Delfonics, Blue Magic ensured that Philly soul was known for vocal groups with high-tenor lead vocalists as much as wailers and crooners. Most prominently featuring the exceptional voice of Ted Wizard Mills, Blue Magic enjoyed success as a quintet from 1973 through 1976, during which they released their first four albums, starting with Blue Magic, and took a dozen singles to Billboard's R&B chart, reaching number one with "Sideshow," also a Top Ten pop hit. Known most for their plush and elaborately arranged ballads, Blue Magic also thrived with exemplary proto-disco cuts like "Welcome to the Club" and dazzled on-stage with their choreographed moves. Toward the end of their fruitful phase with the ATCO label, the group underwent a series of lineup changes and moved from label to label. Since the dawn of the '90s, they have performed and recorded in numerous incarnations.
